Well, I didn't want to take up too much time here. My main concern is that I'm
not being a relay for spam.

Here's a grep of /var/logs/mail. customosas.com, mentioned near the end, is
one of my mail domains, the other being dougnc.com

Thanks!

venture:/var/log # grep com.com mail | grep "Aug 1" | more
